Eat your heart out Milan! Two full Indian meals filled with Lamb and Chicken under 24 dollars. Sitting under enough hanging Christmas/Chili lights to give a Vegas stripper a seizure. Next time any of you are in NYC, I’ll be taking you here.

Do You Like Waffles? Again?

I like waffles, yes I know, recoil in horror. This might make me an unpopular guy, but I think they are a very delicious source of syrup. I don’t care how anybody else feels about this subject anymore. I am even debating on going on an all waffle diet, if you don’t like it then stick to your pancakes and saddness because I’ll be living the high life on easy street while you are wallowing in the disgusting pancake batter of dispair.

When I found out there was a waffle truck crusing around the city, I knew this was one of the most wonderful inventions ever. A quick and easy way to find out where the truck is currently at – use their twitter feed. Now everyday I wake up and check to find out if they are going to be in midtown. Today was that day as they were at 45th and 6th. I ordered the WMD or Weapon of Mass Dinges, loading as many toppings on it as possible. Banana, Strawberry, Maple Syrup, Whipped Cream, and Neutella. The pictures below are after a five minute walk back to my office and a ten minute meeting I forgot was going on.

I Am The Dumpling Man: Rickshaw Truck

Let this be the first in a series I shal call “I am the dumpling man.” As some of you may know, I love dumplings. I am now going to make it my mission to try as many of them as I can. This afternoon shortly after waking up I discovered via twitter the location of the Rickshaw Dumpling truck and that it would be right around the corner from work. So I hopped on the train ready to get some tasty treats in me for lunch.

I got the Chicken dumplings ($6) and watermelonade ($4). I was really excited when opening the package but my large hunger would not be quenched by six small dumplings. Although pretty tasty, come on, six dollars for this? On top of that I had my first taste of watermelonade, to my horror to find out it tasted exactly like watermelon juice. I was expecting the drink to be much sweeter and I’ll admit I was hoping for more of an artificial watermelon flavor.

In the end, I felt kind of ripped off, but not enough to be angry about it. A decent meal in midtown for ten bucks is an alright deal, but I could have gotten more for the same price.

I hope to continue these types of posts as I love dumplings and hopefully others will share my joy. Next time I hit up the acutal Dumpling Man, I shal give it a glowing review because I freaking love that place.
